Scholar’s Advanced Technological System - Chapter 1536

Chapter 1536 – Intelligence Crisis

[Urgent mission: Intelligence Crisis

[Description: Pandora?s box has been opened, and the whispers that spanned a hundred years have finally received a response in the distant future. Standing at the crossroads of destiny, left or right, the result seems to be acceptable. However, survival or destruction is a question worth considering.

[Requirements: Avoid the destruction of civilization.

[Rewards: ???]

The destruction of civilization…

This sentence seemed to have a temperature, and in an instant, it sucked out the body temperature from Lu Zhou?s body.

Lu Zhou stared at the holographic window floating in front of him. After a while, he took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and focused on the mission reminder.

Based on his past experience, The Observer might be screwing with him, but most of the time, especially when issuing urgent missions, they were serious.

If things were allowed to continue to evolve and eventually get out of control, the final outcome would be unacceptable for Lu Zhou…

Lu Zhou took about five minutes to ?read the mission? again. After a long time of pondering, Lu Zhou frowned slightly and muttered in a voice that only he could hear.

?Intelligence Crisis…

?What is that??

Is it the ALPHA virus?

It seems like so.

Anyone sitting in his current position and facing the situation would have the same thought.

However, Lu Zhou felt that something was wrong.

Unlike the previous two emergency missions, where during the first emergency mission, the system clearly pointed out that the crisis was the Martian bacteria that invaded Earth?s ecosystem, and during the second crisis, the system also clearly told him the way to complete the mission, where ?the abnormal experimental data gives a logically self-consistent explanation?.

However, for this urgent mission, the system did not even specify or tell him what the ?intelligence crisis? facing human civilization was, and even the goal of completing the mission was just a vague sentence of ?avoid civilization?s destruction?.

?If robots can be regarded as part of human civilization, humans themselves are in an extinction crisis, and robots with intermediate or even high-level intelligence can survive, can this be regarded as the destruction of civilization… Wait, or??

Lu Zhou?s pupils contracted slightly.

At this moment, he finally realized what was wrong.

It was not a word game, nor was it a ridicule from the superior civilization; the attitude shown by the system itself was very ambiguous.

The destruction of civilization?

Which civilization?

If it were only to avoid the destruction of civilization, does that mean doing nothing, or even standing on the side of the robots to help the awakened ones complete the evolution to the highest level of being, would also be considered as a way to complete the mission?

As long as the end result is not both of them dying out at the same time in a close confrontation…

A terrible thought suddenly appeared in Lu Zhou?s mind.

Perhaps the system, or The Observer?s civilization behind the system… No matter what kind of ending the human civilization is heading toward this time, they just don?t care.

However, Lu Zhou was a human.

He couldn?t accept such an ending!

?For the problem of algebraic geometry, the key to solving the problem is to see the essence through the phenomenon… In this case, the ALPHA virus may be one of the results caused by the crisis, even including The Spirit of The Universe Foundation.?

Lu Zhou bit his lower lip lightly. His brain was turning very fast at this moment, using almost every brain cell to its limit.

His gaze floated around in the study room, and at this moment, his gaze suddenly fell on the diary in the corner of the desk.

Lu Zhou suddenly thought of something, so he immediately reached out and took the diary and opened it again.

He quickly skipped the page numbers that had been marked and turned directly to the first page of the diary.

It was at the same time that his pupils shrank.

?I see…?

This experiment…

It has started a long time ago.

At this moment, the bracelet on Lu Zhou?s left wrist suddenly flickered slightly. After seeing the caller?s name clearly, Lu Zhou didn?t hesitate. He immediately pressed the connection button.

The face of Captain Xing appeared in the projected holographic beam. Lu Zhou saw an excited expression on Captain Xing?s face. Even though Captain Xing had not spoken yet, Lu Zhou could tell everything just from Captain Xing?s expression.

?We did it!?

?I understand.?

Seeing how calm Lu Zhou was, Xing Bian was slightly stunned. He was certain that Lu Zhou did not know this yet, but looking at Lu Zhou?s reaction…

Does he already know this?

?Do you… know what I am going to say??

?The computer on Ceres is running the calculations, right??

With a strange expression on his face, Xing Bian nodded.

?Yes… But how did you know??

?A guess,? Lu Zhou said casually. ?By the way, let me guess again. Including the time difference… It was completed around ten minutes ago??

Ceres and Earth were in relatively close positions. The time difference should be about ten to fifteen minutes. Judging from the expression on Captain Xing?s face, there was a high probability that Lu Zhou had guessed it correctly.

However, this incident also confirmed Lu Zhou?s conjecture made a century ago.

That was, there should be no concept of time on the n+1 string.

Otherwise, if the information were propagating strictly at the speed of light, he should have received the urgent mission prompt the moment he received the call from Captain Xing?that was, now, rather than ten minutes in advance.

Thinking of this, Lu Zhou strengthened his guess.

The real intelligence crisis should have nothing to do with the ALPHA virus. Just like his guess, the root of everything lied in the supercomputing center on Ceres!

Looking at the figure standing in the holographic beam, Lu Zhou asked, ?Where are you now??

?Me? I am on the Moon Palace, I came back with the first fleet. Our fleet has reached the moon orbit, and the Third Orbital Airborne Brigade is ready to go. It?s time to put an end to this!?

When Xing Bian spoke, the corners of his mouth had already raised an arc of victory. Although he had always been very cautious, at this moment, he really couldn?t think of any possible reasons for failure.

According to the conclusion of the Academy of Sciences, the results of the supercomputing center could help them complete the ?vaccine? of the ALPHA virus. As long as a comprehensive version update was made to the robots in Pan-Asia, the crises could be avoided.

As for those robots who ran to Guanghan City…

They could just destroy them physically.

The Pan-Asian army was recognized as the strongest in the solar system!

However, after hearing this optimistic speech, Lu Zhou shook his head.

?It?s not that simple.?

Thinking that Lu Zhou was worried about the battle in Guanghan City, Xing Bian smiled and said, ?Of course! After all, it will take a while to kill 100,000 chickens, let alone robots. But they don?t have logistical support. In three days at most, we can drown them in the sewer or unplug their batteries.

?As for the engineers of East Asia Energy, I promise they will all stand in front of you.?

?I don?t mean ALPHA virus. I?m talking about Ceres.? Lu Zhou shook his head and continued, ?Is there a way to go there??

Xing Bian was stunned slightly.

?Go to Ceres??

Lu Zhou nodded and said in an affirmative tone, ?Yeah.?

?There is, but why do you suddenly want to go to that place??

?Good.?

Lu Zhou stared at Xing Bian in the holographic beam earnestly and said in an unquestionable tone. He rarely used his power as an academic leader in this manner.

?Time is running out. I will leave now and wait for you at the customs entrance of the Tianzhou ship! Arrange transportation at your side. It is best to leave as soon as we meet!?

After ending the call, Lu Zhou stood up from the desk, stuffed the diary on the desk into the computer bag, and threw the backpack on his shoulder.

He intended to bring no luggage on this journey.

If all went well, he would be back soon.

And if he failed…

He didn?t want to think about that scenario.

I hope it?s not too late…
